The Trumpster's deportations

Is the DUI guy here legally? If not, sayonara, don’t let the door hit you in the ass.

He promised to prioritize the worst of the worst. Meanwhile he's using a DUI from 12 years ago with no subsequent offenses to try to strip people's green cards and deport them. Deporting even good, God-fearing Christians to bump up those numbers.

He's made America less attractive. Except for you Originally Posted by HDGristle

Historically the strength of America has been its ability to turn immigrants into Americans. That’s a program that we should strive for.

And the reason why is that it benefits everyone in the long run and all of the money spent on stopping people from coming in and removing the people already here won’t stop people from migrating here anyway.

When you look out a 100 years from now the Trump presidency and this anti-immigrant movement will merely be a bump in the road.

Lawful permanent resident, but the DUI is being used as a pretext to strip him of his residency.

All to pump up those numbers

We let you in, you did something as stupid as drinking and driving, endangering the lives of our people, now there’s a new sheriff in town who’s unforgiving, so you’re gone. Works for me.

On the track we were on, 100 years from now there will be no United States. Far less than that for most of Europe.

Which he could actually hit a lot quicker if he would put money into hiring more immigration judges. It's baffling that they maintain that bottleneck instead of eliminating it when it would allow for far speedier, far more bulletproof deportations shielded from lawsuits over cut corners and due process violations.
